Here is great pain taken, to prove that Christian men, in the Ministration of Christs Supper, are not bound to follow the example of Christ: all learning also showed, to beguile the simple with a vain distinction of Substantia, and Accidens. S. Hilary writing of the lewd dealing of the Arians, used in racking of the Scriptures,1 saith thus of them, Aut ita sc•ibuntur fides, ut volunt: aut ita ut volunt, intelliguntur: Their faiths must either be so written, as they will: or else they must be construed, and taken as they will.

The question that lieth between us, standeth not in this point, whether we ought to do every thing that Christ did: but whether we ought to do that thing, that Christ both did him self, and also commanded us to do, and was afterward practised by the Apostles, and holy Fathers, that had the Sprite of understanding, and knew Christs meaning, and was never broken, until the negligence and undevotion of the people, as M. Harding confesseth, brought in the contrary.
